The latest Commitment of Traders report was released, covering positions through Tuesday
The 3-Year Min/Max Screen shows that "smart money" commercial hedgers had a pretty quiet week, with the only new extreme being a further push into longs on the Mexican peso. They're nearing a record there, but the currency tends to only reverse once hedgers have started to get rid of their longs (implying they are establishing more exposure to the underlying currency). Hedgers remained curiously short major equity index futures, still holding about $100 billion net short. Again, this data has been acting oddly since last spring and we're not putting much weight on it. They have started to reverse their long position in 10-year Treasury notes, now holding less than 15% of open interest net long. The Backtest Engine shows that the TLT fund rallied 83% of the time after similar reversals, averaging a return of 3.5% over the next 3 months.
